My dog was hospitalized for 4 days on IV fluids, she would not eat and would vomit if she did, when I would visit her she would eat but vomit after I left. Her BUN and creatine were elevated, and WBC, ALT and Potassium. I seen she was so nervous to be away I took her home on friday. She has not vomited once at home and is eating k/d,drinking water, normal urine and stool, she is playful been on walks everyday and running around with her toys and my other dogs. No signs of dehydration, but she is shaking. She is a three year old jack russell and has always shaked but not as much. Could it be a side affect from the antibotics she is taking? Kidney disease is possible but repeat testing next Saturday after one week of meds. Would she have done so well the past three days if she is in kidney failure? waiting on Addisons results also.. I dont know what to think. She was retested this Saturday and her creatinine dropped to 2 from 3.5 BUN little change. The Vet said as long as the Creatinine improved over the last 12hrs he was not as worried, Potassium was normal also but WBC still slightly elevated. Anyone been through this?? I am so upset, I love my baby and will pay or do anything if she has a chance. She was hospitalized for dehydration due possible obstruction from digging in gravel, she has no previous symptoms of kidney disease and blood work last year was normal.
My dog did recieve a injection on thursday for Addisons? could this be why she is feeling better?

7 weeks and low potassium?
I am 7 weeks pregnant, and I had blood work the other day which came back and said my potassium levels were low. My doctor asked if I was vomiting and I said no, he asked if I had any diarrhea and I said no. He prescribed to me potassium chloride for 10 days. I have severe fluid retention in my legs, and I wondering if anyone knows if that could be related to the potassium levels. I did a bit of looking around on Google, and I saw a few sites mentioning kidney function and potassium levels. Has anyone else had this issue?
I know why he asked If was vomiting and had diarrhea
I have researched and low potassium can cause fluid retention
I am not vomiting, I have said this in original question

i havent drank caffeine in awhile since i overdosed one day along with getting dehydrated, malnourished, and an electrolyte imbalance (goes with dehydration. i believe potassium was the lowest because the entire 3 months i got heart arrhythmia’s) which lasted for a good 3 months. When i was drinking 2-liters of pepsi i never experienced getting light headed like i did today so i was just wondering what it could have been. also, my heart wasnt palpitating like i thought it would

Okay. I love my training. Tonight, I went 2.5 hours. One hour kajukenbo. One and a half hours judo jiu-jitsu. Now I’m sore. In fact, my collar hurts but I can still move it. No more burning pain from earlier this evening. Here’s my question: What do you people use to recover after a workout? I’ve already increased my chromium intake (chromium picolinate = 200 mcg; chromium chloride in a one-a-day vitamin = 120 mcg). I haven’t increased potassium. I get 100 mg in a one-a-day vitamin. I think that’s real low. Near the end of my sessions, my calves and sometimes my Serratus posterior inferior (my ribs) and the lumbar region cramp. I think that might be dehydration. I try to minimize my carb intake for health reasons and trying to drop a little more weight to get faster. Any tips, training ideas, suggestions?

Usually when I’m feeling miserable about my pregnancy I like to get online and see how other women are handling pregnancy and stress at the same time. I’m 21 years old, my husband and I had a beautiful wedding in August. We ended up getting pregnant in October. We were both extremely excited about having both our first child together. However, this pregnancy is such a nightmare to me. I’m currently 17 weeks and 2 days pregnant. I started to get sick around my 6th or so week and have felt this way ever since. I get out of bed every morning knowing that 5 minutes later I will be leaning over the toilet. My headache starts up immediately. I can quickly get a shower and get ready for work, but needless to say I’m not yet done being sick. Sometimes I only make it to my kitchen and have to use the sink and get sick or sometimes I don’t even quite get into the doors at my work and I get sick. I feel nauseous all day long and I can barely eat because when I do I feel terrible in my stomach. I try to eat because I know I have too. I constantly have terrible stomach aches and I feel as though I could vomit all day. After getting home from work I have a wonderful husband that tries to do everything possible to make me comfortable. It’s never enough though. When I start getting nauseated at home and even vomit I yell and scream the entire time saying " I can’t do this anything, I just can’t do this". I smash my fist down and I’ve just about had it. I’ve been to the Doctors now 3 times since finding out I was pregnant and once to the hospital. At the hospital they have given me IV drip due to dehydration and I’ve my entire life had a potassium deficieny which isn’t helping the baby. They have given me a prescription for potassium, however I can’t take the medication because I vomit very shortly after taking it. I’ve tried eating bananas and other such foods for potassium, but I get sick off of eating them too. I don’t feel that I’m underweight due to this. Since starting my second trimester I have not gained any weight, I have actually lost a few pounds. When I got pregnant I started at 5′5" 135lbs. I’m currently running around 127-130lbs. My OB/GYN continues to say everything is going okay, it’s just unforuntanly you were one of the ones that continued to be sick. My husband tells everyone he talks with and works with that he feels horrible that I have to feel this way. I continue to say that I will never have another baby, knowing that the next time could be completely different, I don’t think I could go through this again. I’m just completely miserable about this pregnancy. I was hoping to enjoy everything about this, but I have not had one day yet that I’ve enjoyed.

I’m a 37yrs old OFW, slightly overweight & once had a terrible headache, was vomiting & my BP went up to 190/140. I was eventually confined in the hospital for 4 days. Eversince that day, I am religiously checking BP everyday for the past 6wks & it ranges from 112-127 over 72-80. How long should I be taking 50mg Lifezar? Would it be reduced in dosage and eventually stop in taking it in the future? I have lost about 10lbs and on fish and vegetable diet and refrained on drinking alcohol already. I was thinking since I’m only on my late 30s and active on my lifestyle, I won’t be needing a maintenace meds this soon.
